Thank you all for nice words! Actually, I wouldn't call this pure pixel art. As far as I know, pixel art requires that every single pixel is delicately put on the right place. This picture is quite accurate but it doesn't have that 'pixel level perfection'. (This thread tells what most pixel artists consider pixel art:http://www.pixeljoint.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=11299&PID=139318#139318 ) I think this piece is more like a tiny digital drawing or painting.@CloudCharger: I don't really know how long I've been doing pixel art but art/drawing in general has been my hobby for some 16 years! :D
